Texas A&M athletic director Bill Byrne went on a show called the “Aggie Hour” in Dallas this week and noted that the Aggies never seriously considered moving to the SEC during this summer’s conference shakeups because “I was concerned with changing conferences that we may not be ready for the level of competition if we decided to leave.”

I’m not sure if Mr. Byrne has watched the Aggies in the past decade, but I don’t think he has to worry about changing conferences to not be ready for the level of competition.
